The BBC has announced that a celebrity edition of the popular reality show The Traitors, titled Celebrity Traitors, will be coming this autumn. Hosted by Claudia Winkleman, famous faces will compete to identify “faithfuls” and “traitors” among them. Unlike previous series, this edition will feature celebrities instead of members of the public.
The US version of the show, hosted by Alan Cumming, has already seen stars like Sam Asghari and John Bercow participate. Speculation is rife about which celebrities will be taking part in the UK version, with names like Robert Peston, Clare Balding, Kate Garraway, and Sir Stephen Fry rumored to be involved.
The recent series of The Traitors saw Jake Brown and Leanne Quigley win a prize pot of £94,600 after successfully navigating the treacherous game. The show has been critically acclaimed, winning a Bafta prize for reality and constructed factual, with Winkleman receiving an entertainment performance award.
The celebrity spin-off promises to be just as exciting, with finalists having the chance to win a chunk of the £120,000 prize, unless a traitor manages to outsmart everyone and keep the full pot for themselves. The show is set to go head-to-head with other popular programs at the upcoming Bafta awards, with a memorable moment from the last series involving a surprising family revelation. Celebrity Traitors is sure to keep audiences on the edge of their seats this autumn.
